Stacey is the President and CEO of CTS Telecom, a third generation family owned business. CTS has proudly served the local community since 1911. Her grandfather, John Collver, purchased the telephone company in 1949 and it has remained with the family ever since.

Today, CTS is the leading provider of fiber optic based telecommunications solutions to businesses in Southwest Michigan.

Stacey’s career has included working for a telecommunication consulting firm outside of Washington DC as well as a large telephone company in Chicago, Illinois. Upon returning home to the Kalamazoo area in 2003, she managed her husband’s oral surgery practice until she joined CTS in 2011.

Stacey holds a BA in business from Wake Forest University and a MBA from DePaul University.

Stacey and her husband Jeff have two sons who attend school in Gull Lake. When not leading CTS, she enjoys running, cooking, and watching her boys play sports.
